New Apple display & Mac Pro coming in 2019

Apple is widely expected to have a new first-party display coming in 2019. The company discontinued its iconic Thunderbolt Display back in 2016 and started pointing users towards third-party options instead.

Then, just earlier this year, Apple offered an update on its new pro-focused hardware efforts. The company called the new modular Mac Pro a “2019 product,” while also adding that it has created a new “Pro Workflow Team” to learn more about what professionals need and want.

Now, there’s no indication that the display shown in the Mac mini guide is the display Apple has coming in 2019. Of course, it wouldn’t be the first time Apple highlighted unreleased products in its Getting Started Guides for existing devices.

The display does show a design similar to that of the Thunderbolt Display, but with much smaller bezels. This keeps with Apple’s trend of taking the displays on its products as close to the edge as currently possible.

As users await Apple’s display, there are only a handful of Thunderbolt 3-enabled displays on the market, including one popular option from LG. It’s clear, however, that many users are waiting to see what Apple has in store before making an investment in a third-party display.
